"Check what You have bought and what is on Your engine first.
Kits should be available from every BRP dealer.
The 'old' remotes with red multi contacts came with cable and contact all the way to engine. The
new' ones with Deutz contacts has no cable from remote.

Check first and see what You have and what You get."
